Italia Stone Group, an award-winning marine civil works company based in Perth were engaged to manage the construction of the breakwaters. With strict city and state regulations around the control of dust onsite, Italia Stone were finding efficient dust suppression to be a challenge. The site was using rented standpipe solutions to keep the dust down, which was adding to running costs onsite.
Tim from Italia Stone contacted Liquimech regarding a more permanent, efficient and quality solution. Liquimech recently reached out to Tim to hear about how the project is going and his experience with Liquimech.
“We contacted Liquimech and spoke to Ryan, who found a solution for us with an HDPE, 150ml, foldable standpipe which were more suitable dimensions, and easier for us transport, too in the future.
We were renting standpipes in the past, that all adds up, and that is the reason behind purchasing the standpipe, cost – and also the longevity of it.”

“It’s exceeded our expectations. High quality, we don’t need any counterweights and it’s easy to set up. It’s been in operation for 6 months now with no hassles, we’ve got quite a substantial pump driving water to the standpipe and we haven’t any issues. Overall quality & reliability supplied by Liquimech has been very impressive.
It has increased productivity with regards to dust suppression which is a requirement from the city and from WA water. The water carts turnaround time is much quicker because they fill up quickly at the standpipe, water carts can get out there quite a bit quicker and suppress the dust. This means the Liquimech standpipe has increased our dust suppression capabilities.”
“It was exceptional, Ryan was amazing to deal with. We received the quote straight away, then the time from quote to delivery of the product was only 3 days. All the other suppliers were around 3 months! Service was just incomparable to other suppliers. Yes, we will buy from Liquimech again, and would definitely recommend Liquimech to others looking for solutions in liquid & mechanical management.”
